Reddit mentions: The best girls

This was so much fun! Thanks for posting :)

1 [Something Blue](Playshoes 408566 Girl's Rain Coat Blue 5-6 Years https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B001PDN1O8/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_-CR5AbJ14TEGH). In Scotland April Showers don’t just finish in April! At all points of the year we can expect anything from a light drizzle to torrential rain!

2 Something that says summer. Watermelons totally make me think of summer, and sippy cups are perfect to keep bugs out of your drinks in the summer!

3 food related. A carrot sharpener! I saw these in a local store and couldn’t stop laughing at the thought of someone wanting a really sharp carrot.

4 a gift for someone else. My fiancé is obsessed with this album and I recently bought him a record player so I think he would love having it in this format too!

5 book suggestion. So I don’t know what types of books you are into but this is a YA Fantasy. It follows three sisters who were each born with a power. Now that they are of age, they must use their powers to kill their other sisters and become queen! It’s pretty kick ass :)

6 under $1. Okay so I’m from Scotland and I don’t know if this actually works out to be less than $1 but it is less than £1 so I hope that counts!! And they are really cute :)

7 Doggo related. My spaniel loves things like this! And I think it would work for any dog :)

8 useless but awesome. I’d love for my cats to wear this around Christmas!! Although they’d probably break it within a second haha.

9great movie The LOTRs! Great friendships, a lot of laughs and just a fab story. My all time favourite films!

10Zombie attack. I’m going to be the type of person who hides during the apocalypse and hope for the best! So I think if I find somewhere with some water nearby I could kinda camp out for a while!

11 complete goals. My main goal right now is to be more organised, and to do more creative things. I want to have fun and do more hobbies. So I think a diary where I can be creative and plan all my spare time would be great!

12 add on. WHY ARE PENS ALWAYS ADD ONS????!!!!

13 fandom. This would match my Alice tattoo! And who doesn’t need a purse :)

14 super expensive Jesus!! Who knew you could buy such expensive rings on amazon??

15 sharks or unicorns. Shark cat bed! I can only imagine how my two would react this this haha!

16 wonderful smell. I love this candle! Probably my favourite smell ever!

17 cool toy. I couldn’t find the game I always wanted as a kid, mostly because I couldn’t really remember what it was called! Although here is a Jared Funko pop that I’ve been eyeing up for months!

18 helpful for writers. I thought this was kinda cool. It gives tips on how to get out of writers block as well as mix up characters!

19 current obsession. Musicals are my currently my favourite obsession (see what I did their RHPS fans?)!

20 weird!. I’m just really not sure why these would ever be needed but at the same time I really want a pair haha!

Some additional tips I can add, from my year living in northern Canada:


-Insulated tights can keep you very warm, but they will often bag out, ride down, or otherwise cause fit problems. The easy solution? Wear insulated tights, and then wear a well-fitting pair of hosiery tights over top to keep them in place. I like the Heat tights from Mark's — one pair will work to about -10 C, two pairs for below. Layer with a pair of black hosiery tights from Joe Fresh. Warm, comfortable legs for winter skirt looks.


-If it's above about -15 C, or if sidewalks in your area are well-cleared, or if you aren't standing outside for long periods, you can get away with waterproof fashion boots + warm socks. I really like La Canadienne boots (they're from Montreal!). Full price for those runs about $400, but I've bought a few pairs for $100-$200 by regularly searching Amazon and eBay. The waterproofing is pretty good (holds up in slush, not sure about jumping in puddles) and with regular leather care the leather holds up to snow/slush better than any other brand I've tried. Some styles are slightly insulated, you can make them even warmer by buying a size up and wearing thick insulating socks. Another good way to make boots warmer is to buy insulating insoles at the drugstore and sew them into little toe pockets — toes get cold first, this can buy you an extra ten degrees. Other waterproof fashion boot brands include Aquatalia, Blondo, and Santana Canada. I can say from personal experience Santana Canada boots are NOT waterproof in slush though.


-If you want to maintain a hairstyle but keep your ears warm, my best recommendation is to put bandless earmuffs/ear mitts on your ears and then wear a coat with a roomy hood. Full-on earmuffs are a very distinctive look, but bandless earmuffs can be worn underneath a hairstyle and look quite subtle. These will not be warm enough for extreme cold but a good hood should hold you and is generally better for hat-head.


-If you must wear a hat but are concerned about hat-head, a roomy/slouchy toque is better than a close-fitting one, and cashmere is better than regular wool or synthetics. If you're on a strict budget and handy with a needle and thread, it's easy to find stained or ripped cashmere sweaters at thrift stores and most give you enough fabric to transform into a hat. And don't buy a hat with holes or a loose knit, it won't keep you warm.


-You need mitts with good insulation. Gloves are for -5 C and above, or situations where your hands will only be out for very short periods. Either buy tech mitts or get touchscreen thread from Amazon, because taking off your mitt to use your phone is the worst. Knit gloves under mitts are good for extra insulation or to provide some warmth when you need finger dexterity outdoors.


-Wear a merino long underwear top/base layer under your regular shirt/sweater to warm it up without adding bulk

i'll enter myself as well just because i'm here, and it's cool to say spoil me! :) i would love this hat because it's adorable and the company has a good rep for comfort and warmth with their products. thank you!

Do you bring them to the parks to trade or just to display? I love collecting the pins, but up until now I haven't traded any and just buy the ones I love and keep them.

I think for my next trip, though, I'm going to trade, but I'm only going to bring like a handful of pins to trade. I think having like, 10 pins on a lanyard would be pretty tolerable to carry around. I think I might display mine in like a binder or a shadow box and take a picture of it so I know what pins I already have and then just bring some with me and leave the rest at home.

Also, for carrying around a smaller amount of pins, this seems pretty cool and probably something you could pretty easily make.

If you wear them just to display, what if you just wore your favorites or got a couple of lanyards and rotated them?

As someone said, a backpack would also work well, and I agree on the locking backs. I made the mistake of having mine of a bag with their regular backs and I lost a couple before switching to the locking ones. They're awesome.

And done!!!

Is your daughter in aba therapy? I would definitely ask her therapist if she has any ideas or witness this kind of behavior before and see what she recommends.

For clothing, I suggest getting bodysuits for your daughter that have snap enclosures at the bottom:

https://www.amazon.com/Toddler-Sleeveless-Bodysuit-8-10-10-12/dp/B0087PZ7DA

They are much harder to open and as you can see from the reviews is popular for older special needs kids. Another idea would be to get rompers that have buttons on the front or back in order take off like:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XHL2F3C/

Do avoid spaghetti straps or anything with large necklines cause those are easy to wiggle out of.

If your daugther likes tight fitting clothes, weighted blankets/vests, etc. You can also try a gymnastics unitard out.

For the pottying aspect, I suggest getting portable potties for every room she spends times in so you and her have fast easy access to plop her down when she needs to go. I suggest sitting her on the potty every hour while awake and every 3-4 when asleep. This can be tweaked based on what you think her pottying habits are, but its a good baseline to start at and time can be slowly incremented once you get a good feel for her toileting times. It helps to keep meals and snack time to be around the same times.

Whenever you sit her down on her potty use sign language, pecs, vocalizaton, whatever you think she will catch on first and be consistent. Let her sit for 5-10 mins than continue throughout your day. When she does potty, make a big deal out of it with whatever motivates her might be singing a song, few m&m's, her favorite youtube video, whatever you decide to use make sure you use it exclusively for a successful potty.

You're right that she see no benefit for her to potty successfully, so that's why you need to create one for her to see and kids with autism it's harder for them to connect the dots, so it's important you are consistent.

It's also okay to take a step back on trying to potty train if you don't think she is developmentally ready and just focus on trying to keep her diaper on.

From each list?

• Miscellaneous list: High Waisted Pencil Skirt - I've recently discovered how much I love pencil skirts, and it want more. This looks perfect!
  
  
• Books List: Battle Magic by Tamora Pierce - This is the newest book in her series, which I've been reading since I was 12. I still love the series, and am looking forward to continuing it!
  
  
• Cooking List: A Digital Kitchen Scale with Pull Out Display - I've gotten into bread making and more serious baking, which starts to require weighting all your ingredients. I've had my eye on this one in particular because it's stainless steel, and the pull out display is great when your bowl is really big.
  
  
• Tea List: This Tea Mug with Tea Strainer - I'm starting my first big girl job in May, and I'll definitely feel more comfortable there if I can drink my own loose leaf tea. And I love how sleek and easy this mug is, and it just looks so great too! I already have my eye on it being my work mug.
  
  
• Craft List: Ginger Essential Oil - This one was difficult, because this is a multi-part thing. I want to make my own solid perfume, which means I have to get a carrier oil (Almost Oil), beeswax, and whatever I want to smell like. So far I'm thinking I want to smell like ginger, lemon and cloves. Or ginger, lemon, and basil. I plan to make a few different ones and see what I like best.
  
  
  This was fun! I never really thought about what my highest priority ones were.

My 7yo daughter is also a huge fan of Dino Dana (and Dino Dan/Trek)! We recently moved from the West Coast to New England and she's been struggling to find new girl friends because the gender expectations are more traditional and she hates toys like Barbie, baby dolls, ponies, etc. She likes cars, Pokémon, dinosaurs, every Lego show except Lego Friends (the "girl" Lego products), ninja, and science toys. At the same time, she's temperamentally gentle, maternal, so the more boisterous behavior of some boys is a bit frightening to her.

All of this was not a big deal where we came from, since there was a lot more fluidity in gender expectations. Now, she finds that she has no interests in common with the girls, and intimidated by the behavior of a lot of the boys.

Her class had a game day, where the kids could bring games from home and the kids could try playing the games, and brought in her favorite game Dinosaur Escape. She was excited to bring it in because she loves it so much and was sure other kids would, too. When she came home the excitement had deflated completely. Only one girl tried the game and told her dinosaurs were boring, but the game was so popular with the boys they wanted to play it over and over, and she didn't know why the girls didn't want to play.

I tried Girl Scouts, but she didn't like it because "all they like are LOL dolls and Hello Kitty" and they made fun of her favorite boots because they were combat boots. (I mean, they're awesome boots, denim with pink stars and more glittery than the picture, what's not to like?!).

I'm frustrated and sad for her, and afraid she is being pressured to act and dress like the other girls just to make friends. So far, her most reliable friend is the gentle autistic boy down the street who's 3 years older. He tends to make friends with the younger girls because he finds the boys are too rambunctious for him as well.

I'd say that going for a (mostly) black outfit maybe your best shot at looking professional while also being able to mix in your personal style.

Regarding shirts,this black floaty top will certainly look smart when paired with something like a simple pencil skirt (which is petite too! and elasticated so it'll be comfortable to move around in)

I'd pair these with a pair of simple black or sheer pantyhose, a blazer in any style really, you can't go wrong with an all black outfit and some simple brogues. You can add further personal touches with your hair and jewellery.

If it was something a little more covered up this shirt is pretty good for that.

And to make it a little more casual a cardigan (1) (2) would be a good way to go.

And, lastly, for trousers, these look pretty good and as they are juniors they should fall a little shorter.

Obligatory, Working in my birthday suit and good luck! I hope you find something :)

Much of it comes from Puritanical roots. Perhaps things are different now, but when I was young, Judeo-Christian households carried a certain amount of shame associated with sex, sexual organs, and discussions about them.

More shame and discomfort also comes from society trying to paint every man as some kind of molester. This may even be the biggest factor. This is nothing more than internalized misandry that men must overcome for the sake of their daughters. But internalized misandry it is. There is also external misandry. When shopping pre-K schools for my daughter, I asked if there were any male teachers (as I prefer a balance). I was told by a female teacher that it would be considered a "safety risk" by many parents. I wanted to tell her that sexual abuse convictions of female educators have tripled in the past decade. But I noped right out of there and found a better school. That said, this is what dads face on a daily basis.

As men, it is very easy for us to internalize such blatant misandry. My example is simply one of many that we face each week. Luckily, I did not have the same amount of religious programming as my peers. I just had to face society's anti-male pressures. I can see it being more difficult for my peers who were raised in parochial schools and deeply religious homes.

It takes a mindset to say "Fuck em. This is my daughter and I am her father. We can talk about our bodies. We should talk about our bodies. There is nothing wrong, shameful or dirty about it. "

I was the first to comfortably broach the subject with my daughter. I taught her to wipe and why there is an order of operations. She would happly sing the "Down in the front, up in the back" song that I taught her. Ask her why? "So I don't get Mr. Germ and Mrs. Bacteria in my buh-gina..." Fucking hilarious! And that's exactly what the topic needs, right? A bit of child-like levity.

What has also helped me is to use books from cultures that are not ashamed of the body.

The "where did I come from" question was addressed at 2-3 years old with this one. There are some other Japanese books we used, but I cannot find them online.

Body functions

Undergarments

When they get older this one is more appropriate.

I have to admit, the more you read and talk with them about the subject, the easier it gets. I also got kids' anatomy books to go over the various systems. Using clinical terms helps remove discomfort as does talking about genitals in terms of our pets ("Sada the dog has testicles because he is a boy dog. Men and boys also have testicles just like Sada".)

Regarding inappropriate touching, I find that fathers are probably better at explaining boundaries as we are usually the ones who are more adept at setting clear and consistent boundaries for our children through fatherly discipline. Once we were comfortable discussing the body, it was easy to discuss inappropriate touches. We checked this book out from the library. Good concept, mediocre execution. This one was much better and enjoyable.

These books (and subsequent discussions) helped us set a baseline and standard in the younger years builds trust that moves on to the adolescent and pre-teen years. One of the men in our Dad's Group has a teenage daughter. He was the one who taught her daughter different ways of dealing with her period (cup vs pad vs tampon). He has a wonderful bond with his daughter that was set quite early. That guy has been a great influence on all and has helped many of us remove the shame and stigma around approaching the female body.

A few random factors.

- I grew up in a multi-generational house that had at least 2 girls and women at any one time.

- I have also had plenty of girlfriends and serious (cohabitating) relationships. One girlfriend had ovarian cysts, one girlfriend had very unusually rough 7-day periods. Of course, we discussed these things together.

- I probably found my parents' copy of "The Joy of Sex" at a bit of an early age, too.

- I was the first class in my state to have sex-ed in school. This is when I was living in America. It was very controversial, as we started as 5th graders. Many parents protested this (again, American Puritan roots).

All of these things demystified female genitals and has helped with my comfort with discussions around the female body.

A bit of a ramble. But it breaks my heart to see fathers allow terrible people to drive a wedge between them and successful parental relationships with their daughters. I am skeptical of university studies, as most seek to paint men is a negative light. Perhaps this study will be no different. But maybe this post might help some dads with their discussions and relationships with daughters.

It's a bit spendy, but $260 for a Metolius Magnum is a really good deal. That's what I have, and I love it (and i paid $325 for mine last year).

Generally speaking, yes, get a big pad. A nice bonus is you can sleep on it while camping. Buying a pad on CL is fine as long as it's pretty new and/or gently used. The R3 looks interesting and it's cool that they use scraps, but it's really heavy (almost the same weight as the Magnum) and I'm not crazy about the idea of landing on a surface that's uneven.

Since you said it's not super corporate, and probably a lighter atmostphere I would go with a simple dress and blazer combo. A little color is okay in a more casual environment, but stick with a black blazer and bring the splash of color into your accessories, like a cute necklace or bracelet.

I like to carry something with a four leaf clover for good luck!

I hope it goes well for you! Please do update us :) Thanks for the contest.

In school, you're taught a lesson and then given a test. In life, you're given a test that teaches you a lesson.

1.) For this I choose a pencil box because when I was in grade school I collected pencil shavings mostly from colored pencils to do a craft project idea I had with them. Sad ending though, I never did get around to making the craft.

2.) I know this notebook would make me insanely jealous. I wasn't much of a note taker however so it would end up mostly filled with doodles :P

3.) I think any teacher would smile if they saw one of their students wearing this shirt

4.) YAY! Art class! I think with this I will be fully prepared!

5.) In my state (Washington) it rains a lot during the school year, so these fashionable rain boots are a must have for splashing around in the puddles!

6.) If I could pick my school's mascot, it would definitely be the blobfish because I don't think anybody else has him as a mascot yet. And of course because he's so cute!

7.) You would think a box of nerds candy this big should last the whole school year, but it's kids we're talking about here, come on.

8.) I have always been in love with the Shel Silverstein books such as Where The Sidewalk Ends. Also they rhyme and have silly drawings!

9.) There is no way to beat this amazing spectacular backpack any kid wearing this would be the most popular kid in school!

10.) Between homework and dinner, my favorite activity would be playing the Wii U with friends or family. It's a fun video game system that can also keep you up and active!

Bonus #1 - School newspaper?

I'd love to help you out! In addition to some other gifts, I really want to buy your daughter those ugg boots she wants, but I would hate to see someone spend that much money for boots that will probably get ruined after a single season. In my experience, Bearpaws have been proven to be more weatherproof and cheaper than uggs. I've had my pair for about 5 years :) Here are a few links:

Classic Bearpaws

Tall ones


Sparkly ones :)

Please let me know which color, style and size she would like and I'd be more than happy to buy those for you in addition to some other items on your wishlist. If she really has her heart set on those uggs then I, unfortunately, can't afford to buy those for her, but I sincerely hope that someone else on this sub does. Happy Holidays!

Feel better soon.

I thought that since you like The Princess Bride and Evolution, you would definitely enjoy Galaxy Quest, which is juuuust over $5 unless you get it instant streaming, which is free for Prime members, or $2.99 to "rent."

If you already have that, I just found this globe necklace that is pretty cool, and I thought it might cheer you up to wear something pretty. And you can play with it!

For me, I was thinking Meiji assortment.

From cheapest to most expensive...

Art supplies are always appreciated because they're used up so quickly. They're a great default if you don't know what to get.

My favorite children's CD by Rachel Buchman.

Dapper Snappers are really nifty little things that most people don't know about.

Head to the bookstore and get the staff to recommend some fantastic children's books.

Get a family membership to the local zoo, aquarium, children's museum, nature center, etc. (although check first - many places let children 2 and under in for free, so a couple's membership might be a better value).

Thanks doll! Wow you have a ton to choose from,you have some pretty kick ass things on your wishlist. You should buy This because fma is reason enough plus this kicks ass, this because cloud is amazing & I cried like a baby at the end of crisis core & this because every d&d player needs a good dice set and these are gorgeous.

From my list? I would love this butterfly. How does it relate to the items from your list? It is white which represents cloud, before it died it flew free which is what Al in fma wanted was to be free from his suit.

I had fun looking through your wishlist, your taste is very similar to my own. Have you played arkham horror?

There's a replica of Ravenclaw's diadem on Amazon, for about £125.

There's some good stuff from Noble Collection, but be wary if you buy replicas. Always check the description, because stuff that looks awesome the the Triwizard Cup are actually often just 5" tall. So not a replica then.

And I don't know about her, but I love collecting all different wands, not just having one.

This fabulously flawless and fantastic necklace would feel fantastic around my fancy neck.

LOL. I tried.

[This] (http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00AMZOSSS/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pd_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=1DOHIJA2W76CH&coliid=IJGNU3MPTYFUA) necklace is super cute and 3.18 with free shipping

I picked out two completely different ones:

The first one is white and purple with flowers. I love the spring colors. It also comes in pink.

The second one is teal and sequined with bows, if you have a little superstar on your hands :)

I'm looking up accessories right now!

This is such an adorable dress!

Edit: Looks like someone might have chosen that dress already... I also found this one that is adorable

If you already have clothes that are two big, roll the waistline down (like you'd do with the legs, only the other direction) and it will help.

Also, I like these: https://smile.amazon.com/Dapper-Snapper-Original-Adjustable-Belt-Black/dp/B003IXVFLO/

you should be able to bobby pin the ends in your hair if you have them down. it doesn't actually look like that one is meant to be worn easily; some of them are design pieces rather than wearable.

https://www.amazon.com/The-Noble-Collection-NN7247-Ravenclaw/dp/B00NA5WQUO

like that one has much longer ends.

are you sure yours isn't actually messed up?

Globe necklace
